Qlynn, late rector OF ST. Stephens church,
New York, thai he had already rendered
himself liable to ecclesiastical censurs by
soversign pontih, given Jan. II. Wishing,
however, to deal leniently with
him. the sacred congregation re-
training from issuing censure, and offering
him further opportunity to be heard in his
own behalf, gave him q final peremptory
order to present himself at Rome within
forty days from the receipt Of the letter
containing such order, under pain OF ex-

one. He will never condemn any being
who follows the dictates Of his conscience,
even be that conscience an erring one.
In oboying it he is forever obeying the will
OF God. As it is q dogma of the Catholic
faith, and according to all Chris
tian philosophy and teaching, the man
who goes against his conscience sins against
the Holy Ghost. and despite the power of

power, if in SO doing he goes against his
conscience, he sins. Even il O high Roman
tribunal summons q man before them for
teaching the truth which be knows to exist,
and if that tribunal should condemn his
doctrines without giving them trial
and condemn him TO retract them,
It is his duty before God to refuse
to do so (cheers) and lift was in It's power,
as at one time it was, but, thank God, no

truth in the persons of those who have
read Gods word in nature before they
have been able to see it, should they sum
